The article carries Mr. Kawatra’s opinion about the forthcoming budget.
“In the forthcoming budget, we would like to see measures to ensure that the growth momentum and resultant confidence in the economy are sustained. We would also like to see more efficient government spending in sectors that have a long-term impact on the economy: education, infrastructure and health. Within education, there is a strong need to increase spends on literacy programmes.
